A European filmmaker is making a movie with children living in a home for socially excluded youngsters in Tangier, Morocco. While filming, the director’s unorthodox methods of working cause his relationship with the children to disintegrate to such a point, that the initial course of the project is altered.
The 28-year-old director studied film in Barcelona, Spain and moved to Tangier, Morocco four years ago. Laxe started to work in a “creative pedagogy” project with underprivileged children for eighteen months, and the film emerged from this experience.
